After a tummy tuck I instruct my patients to listen to their bodies.  If you do more and there is more swelling, then it is too much for you at this time.  The work associated with taking care of your horses may prevent you from ever healing correctly if you don't let someone else do...

Sorry, the chances of getting your tummy tuck paid for by insurance is extremely low.  Insurance companies are wise to people trying to get tummy tucks paid for with their insurance.  It is considered a purely cosmetic operation.

The belly button appears somewhat reddened.  Drainage is not particularly normal in this circumstance.  You may have a stitch infection which can be treated with local care and removal of the stitch with or without antibiotics.   Either way, your surgeon needs to see you.

MGUS probably wouldn't interfere with a tummy tuck procedure.  However, I would have your primary medical doctor provide a clearance note prior to surgery.

The patients that continue tools weight after a tummy tuck look better than those you do not.  The tummy tuck is an operation that is planned based on the position of the belly button and the pubic hairline.  Weight loss after a tummy tuck should not mean that you will need a revision....
